Why fear uncertainty?

Pooja Sankar, 2T5 PB

Why do we fear uncertainty

When it may not be that bad,

Maybe it’s this doubt 

Guiding our intuition and actions,

Unapparent to the senses,

Yet our consciousness acts in our best interest.

This same uncertainty prompts introspection:

Why not let the mind wander 

Before it’s made to choose?

Sticking to a single path is no easy feat 

In a life, filled with so many choices,

How come not choosing right away isn’t one?

Let the mind continue to wander

Before a decision must be made,

Let the senses feel it all 

Before the brain must decide,

Let the body process every possibility

before commiting to just one.
